Two more Tapestry Collection properties announced, one in Savannah and one in Wilmington. The Savannah hotel has excellent TripAdvisor reviews and it appears that the Hotel Ballast Wilmington is a rebrand from the existing Hilton Wilmington Riverside.
- The Cotton Sail Hotel Savannah, Tapestry Collection by Hilton (Opening Q1 2018) – Situated in the heart of old Savannah’s National Landmark and the Historic District, The Cotton Sail Hotel effortlessly blends traditional Savannah charm with upscale modern amenities. Housed within a refurbished late-1800s cotton warehouse, the 56-guestroom hotel features the River House Restaurant and Top Deck – one of Savannah’s only rooftop bars overlooking the historic area below and the picturesque Savannah River.
- Hotel Ballast Wilmington, Tapestry Collection by Hilton (Opening Q1 2018) – Located in historic downtown Wilmington, the property first opened as an inn in 1970 and was the first constructed along Water Street. With its name inspired by the maritime significance in the destination, Hotel Ballast provides travelers an ideal location on the Cape Fear waterfront with unobstructed views of the USS North Carolina Battleship as well as access to the Riverwalk, a full mile of boardwalk that boasts some of Wilmington’s best shopping and dining. The hotel is undergoing an $8.5 million restoration including its 272 guestrooms, meetings space, pool, lobby and corridors as well as adding a bridal suite leading up to its entrance into the collection next year.
